I don’t care one bit about the private sex lives of politicians. In all honesty, I’d prefer not to know about their proclivities and interests in that arena.

However, it would be nice for once to elect someone smart enough to realize that pretending to speak from a so-called “moral” platform while engaging in the very activities you speak out against IS NOT what we the people seek in our elected officials!
